Gil, having done both, I would STRONGLY recommend going into the IT field. It pays much better, even in these lean times, and there is a LOT less stress. I really feel for those in law enforcement as that was one of the most high-tension jobs I have ever worked. I enjoyed the occasional thrill (and don't fool yourself into thinking COPS is what Police work is like) but the things you see people do to themselves and each other can easily make you turn very bitter and sour...

BTW, I am currently a Systems Admin for a division of Lennox Air Conditioning. If I coul djust find a way to make this Fett stuff pay....

Well, let's see...I was a Historical Interpreter, a Special Events Manager for the Bronx Zoo, A Magician and Batman for parties (part time), and most recently sales for a hotel/conference center until I lost my job.

Present status - unemployed...but looking.

Chief cook and bottle washer(salesperson) at a military surplus store. Boring job.

Did you know that the average police officer is more likely to die 20 years earlier than someone with another career? I found that out watching cops the other day. Anyway, i am a sound technician at my high schools performing arts center as well as all of the auditoriums in my school district.

--EDIT-- Anyone here from southest Michigan?

I am a contractor and a business owner. I am also a reserve police officer.
Gil, you may want to try the reserve officer route first. I don't think I could do it full time. Although I do enjoy the once in a while thrill, Most of it is kind of boring and as braks buddy said it is disturbing what people do to themselves and others. But every once in while you have a good story to tell your friends.

I've been bartending for the last 3 years, with some freelance illustration work on the side. But I'm tired of babysitting drunks, and the money doesn't matter to me any more. I just went part time so I'll do that 1 day, and the other 6 will be used to get my illustration, paintings, and props off the ground.

I am the assistant director of a university Writing Center and I am a writing instructor, SO I NOTICE EVERY SPELLING ERROR YOU ALL MAKE!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Just kidding about the spelling thing. Seriously though, English teachers always get a bad rap for being obsessed with grammatical errors, but I really am not like that. I'm more interested in content than format, though format can sometimes detract from content. ..... Sorry about that--got carried away there! :p

Someday, I would also like to be a professional horse trainer, but that's a long ways in the future.

Well, i don't know, i guess...*SPROINGGGG* AHHHH.

p.s. don't get mad i'm not sure the rite lines but its something like that.

I am a Deputy Sheriff and work at a jail. I previously was in the military as a Navy SEAL for 7 years. Tabomabi i live in Adrian, MI and you can't get much more southeast than that!

Though one may not get rich, and that is only because you don't know how to scam OT, if you like job security, being a copper is right up your alley. After 2 years in America's finest fighting force, the United States Marines, I am now enjoying my 7th year as a copper. I currently investigate and find those who wish not to be found. Kind of perfect for this hobby.

It's not for everybody, but I could not think of a better thing to do in life.

Yall are making me sick with your Python misquoting. Graham Chapman is rolling in his grave.

My Only Fettish, I'm with you. Grammatical errors and spelling mistakes jab at my eyes like flaming pokers or something. You're killing our language people! Murderers!

Which university? I started this week as a writing consultant for the Cal State Northridge Learning Center and am also teaching first year comp there as part of my master's program. In fact, I taught my very first freshman comp class today! 8am - boy is that early! It was a lot of fun though.

So that is what I do now.

Grammar - ick. I will only bring it into my syllabus if I see a pattern of problems.

Kim

p.s. The most ironic thing is I forbade my students to use smiley faces in their online writing - I want them to try to convey emotion through the written word

31yrs is not to old. Like someone said earlier when you come in at an older age you come in with a better understanding of the world.
